This position begins as a 10-month maternity cover for our Operations Manager. However, Kestrix is growing rapidly, so this is a permanent contract. After the 10-month period, you will transition into a permanent operations, growth, or strategy role tailored to the business’ evolving needs and your core strengths. This role is generalist by design. You will spend half your time managing supplier relationships, negotiating competitive pricing for Kestrix, and ensuring our grant-funded projects run smoothly. The other half will be spent supporting the CEO with business operations and strategy, tracking budgets, and co-owning the company’s financial model to ensure our day-to-day processes don’t break as we scale.
